A Message from our Head Girl and Head Boy<br />

Head Girl — Liyana<br />

Head Boy—Achcharya<br />

Hello,<br />

Our names are Ashcharya and Liyana and we are delighted to be your Head Boy and Head<br />

Girl this year. We are excited to be leading and representing the school and we hope to<br />

make this year more unique and eventful.<br />

Recently, <strong>GIS</strong> celebrated both Diwali, the Indian festival of lights, and Halloween. Our Diwali<br />

celebration filled <strong>GIS</strong> with both colour and candles. We were happy to see that everyone enjoyed<br />

the delicious Indian food and the spectacular performances that took place.<br />

The whole school took part in our Hallowe’en celebrations. With help from IB students and<br />

staff we were able to organise a haunted house, Primary disco and other various stalls and<br />

activities that the students all seemed to enjoy.<br />

In the next month or so we will have some more exciting events. This term’s Parent Conference<br />

for Year 7-11 and IB1s will be held on Thursday November 1. We hope to see many<br />

parents attending this as the teachers’ feedback is vital for the development of the students.<br />

One of our big celebrations next month is Loy Krathong, a traditional Thai festival, that will be<br />

celebrated on November 22 this year. Another major event is the Secondary production of<br />

Holes that opens on November 14. We’re sure that the current Year 11s are excited for their<br />

IB Taster Day coming up on Wednesday November 7 where they will get to experience a day<br />

in the life of an IB student.<br />
